The cut on the pipe is more like a boloney cut than a slash cut...almost in between the two. Looks cool...but it is different than the earlier version of this pipe.

Yeah, I lowered my frontend 2" this weekend, and with the air ride it will riding pretty low. At least with the air ride I can adjust if needed.

Lowering the front actually has the ability make the rear of the pipe run higher as ti evens out the height of the bike. Of curse this varies on the amount that each bike is lowered front and rear.

I'll let you guys know tomorrow hopefully. I finished all my winter mods this weekend except for the fat cat.

Drew, I rode the bike today and the shorter forks actually give it a more aggressive sporty feel. I like it! I got some pics for you. You don't have to remove the bars. You can pop the caps and pull the fork tubes with the bars on. I could actually do the whole job by just removing headlight, tins, and caliper. Drain fork oil, unscrew caps and loosen pinch bolts, then raise the bike and let the front slide through the trees. Unscrew the caps, pull spring, add new oil, add new springs and spacer, and put back together.

I'll post some pics in a new thread.

Thanks. I was looking at my bike yesterday and realized it is much simpler than I thought with the exception of the fact that I need an open end wrench that is big enough to get on the tube caps. Neither of my giant crescents are giant enough.

I used a big crescent to do it.
